So I can only assume people who "beg" for overtime are absolutely desperate for the money. But what kind of messed up country would you need to be in for a standard 40 hour work week to not bring in enough cash to survive off of? |
Who are you to judge what other people do with their time? Your assumptions seem to just be your own narrow view applied to everyone else. People's reasons are their own and as different as the people themselves.
My father was a workaholic who climbed into a log truck when he got off his job at the mill because that was his hobby. A supervisor I know takes all the overtime he can get because he's recently divorced and would rather be around coworkers than sitting in his apartment. One of my friends works overtime because she's a single mother with three kids. Another lady I know sleeps like 4 hours a night and always comes in a couple of hours early despite making plenty of money. My sister's husband works all the overtime he can get because they spend a lot of money buying new stuff and going on trips--it's what they like to do.
I doubt they much care about what "seems crazy" to you.
